#1 looks like the ceramic connectors that used to be used to run electric wires from poles to the side of a house.

Subject: [BCMA] Help Wanted: Mystery Objects

Hello BCMA Members,

We have come across some uncatalogued, unidentified objects in our collections and are hoping some of you will know what they are!

Mystery #1: Ceramic.

Mystery #2: Ceramic/porcelain. Reminds me of clay pipe stems.

Mystery #3: Glass vials with liquid and floating debris. Possibly medicinal?

Thank you for your help!
